CARPET CLEANING AND RUG CLEANING |
To keep your carpet in good condition, deep carpet cleaning is required at least once a year. If you have pets and/or children, you may want to clean your carpet more often. There are several methods that people have tried to clean their carpet which are listed below. Click on the method to learn things to watch for when choosing to clean your carpet in this manner.
- With an aerosol spray foam cleaner from the supermarket,
- A home carpet shampooer,
- A hot water cleaning machine you rent at the supermarkets,
- And professional carpet cleaners.
Before any of these carpet cleaning processes, blot up fresh and older stains with methods provided on the Cleaning Tips page. It is important to vacuum thoroughly. By thoroughly, you should go over the same spot at least 2-3 times with the vacuum. Before starting the carpet cleaning task, it is best to take all of the furniture out of the room, if possible. If not, you could move furniture to one side, shampoo that section and let dry 24 hours. Then move the furniture to the other side and repeat the process. Make sure to put aluminum foil under the legs of the furniture to ensure that no color bleeding or rust will take place.
If your carpet is not overly soiled, you could try using a spray foam (or our Home Pro Spotter). Before using, you may want to check for color-fastness. You do this by spraying a small piece of carpet with the cleaner. Leave for awhile, and then rub with a white towel. The longer you leave it, the better the test. If there is no color bleed through on the towel, go ahead and shampoo the whole carpet. Follow directions on the can. Usually the process involves spraying the foam evenly over the carpet; allow it to dry to a powder, then vacuum.
If you choose to rent shampooers and hot water machines you can do so at the supermarket. They are appropriate for carpets that are not heavily soiled. With most home shampooers, you fill a reservoir with water and carpet shampoo. You should also do the color-fast test with this shampoo. You move the shampooer across the carpet as you do with a vacuum, but you also use a sprayer button to spray the cleaning solution onto the carpet. Next, go over the shampooed area without spraying to rinse. Some machines may have suction to absorb the water from the carpet and some do not. When home shampooing, be sure not to over wet the carpet or it could soak through to the backing and possibly even the floor below.
The most effective method for cleaning carpets is to have them professionally cleaned . Cleaning your carpet is an important process. To ensure the quality of your carpet always hire a professional carpet cleaner. A clean carpet makes the whole room appear cleaner. It is also important if you want to sell your home. A clean carpet smells fresh and feels softer. What better reason could there be?

AREA RUG CLEANING |
At A Rose 4U we clean all types of Area Rugs ranging from Chinese, Indian to Persian. In the rug cleaning process, rugs are individually cleaned after determining the best method by taking into account the weave, fibre and dyes.
Prior to starting the process of rug cleaning, the rugs are thoroughly vacuumed to remove existing dry soil. This process gets rid of dust and debris. Depending on the type of area rug it may be dry or wet cleaned. If the rug is dry cleaned we use a solvent based rug cleaning method. If it is wet cleaned we steam clean the rug at the proper temperature and suction. Finally the rugs are hung up to dry in a controlled environment.
Rugs are individually inspected during the drying process to ensure that no bleeding or other problems occur. All work is guaranteed to produce the best possible result for your area rugs.
